ProgrammesThe Next Generation Internet (NGI) community will gather next month in their yearly NGI Forum. The main goal of NGI is to build the Internet of Humans.
The NGI Forum is the ideal place to learn more about upcoming calls in Horizon Europe related to NGI. You can as well take part in discussions on future priorities with experts across domains such as Trust and Data Sovereignty, Internet Architecture, Decentralised Technologies or new methods of Search.
The NGI community contains innovators, researchers, developers, policymakers and civil society players.
Subscription and more information is available on 2021.ngiforum.eu.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).
Stay informed about what matters to you.

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
